A lunar eclipse occurs when the full moon moves into the shadow cast by the Earth. This does not occur every full moon as the moon does not orbit the Earth in the same plane as the Earth orbits the Sun. The colour of the moon appears to change as it rises, although this is not an effect of the eclipse here. Instead it is due to the moonlight passing through more of the atmosphere the lower in the sky it is, which allows more of the blue light to be scattered, making it appear redder.

These clouds form due to solar heating of the ground, which warms the air above it, causing it to rise to a level at which it's cool enough for the moisture to condense. These clouds are at an altitude of around 1500 metres (5000 feet). These are cumulus mediocris clouds, which have modest vertical development, but they are generally a fair weather cloud. In an unstable atmosphere, cumulus clouds can develop during the day into towering clouds that may form thunderstorms.

Strong updrafts give the cloud a bubbling, cauliflower-like appearance, and the tops of the updrafts are capped by pileus clouds. These thin altostratus clouds form when the updrafts raise moist air into cooler air at higher altitudes, causing condensation. The pileus clouds are quickly caught up by the growing clouds below. Pileus clouds are a good indicator of a particularly active storm.

Asperitas is a new classification of cloud that was recognised by the International Cloud Atlas in March 2017. Asperitas means "roughened", and refers to the wave-like motion of the cloud. The similarity to waves on the sea is not a coincidence, as they are both gravity waves. Here the waves are occurring at a frontal boundary, where warm air has moved over colder, denser air, forming a temperature inversion. The boundary between the cold dense air and the warmer air above it displays waves analogous to those seen when wind blows over a water surface.

The spectral colours of the arc are produced by the refraction of sunlight through flat hexagonal ice crystals in high cloud. The arc appears at a distance of 46 degrees from the Sun. Due to the geometries required by the ice crystals and light paths, the arc can only be seen when the Sun is high in the air, at least 58 degrees above the horizon.

The cell is bounded by its cell membrane. Within this, there is a variety of organelles, each with a specific purpose. The nucleus (blue) contains the cell's genetic material, and is the site of gene expression, where the cell's DNA is transcribed to RNA so that it can be used to produce proteins. Also seen is the Golgi apparatus (green layers), which is responsible for sorting and preparing proteins made by the nucleus for their ultimate function. The orange bodies are mitochondria, which provide energy for the cell in the form of the molecule ATP. Seen next is the endoplasmic reticulum, which is covered in small bodies called ribosomes.

The orange bodies are mitochondria, which provide energy for the cell in the form of the molecule ATP. Seen next is the endoplasmic reticulum, which is covered in small bodies called ribosomes. Ribosomes are the site of the manufacture of proteins, where mRNA from the nucleus is translated into proteins. HD is a flat version on a black background.

PTFE is a long-chain polymer, produced by linking individual molecules of tetrafluoroethene (C2F4). During polymerisation the carbon-carbon double bond is broken, and each carbon links to the carbon of another tetrafluoroethene molecule. This forms long chains of -(C2F4)- groups. The presence of the fluorine makes the plastic extremely hydrophobic and gives it one of the lowest coefficients of friction known. As such, Teflon has found many uses in bearings, non-stick cookware and waterproof clothing.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/496245/350wm/K0036964-Formation_of_PTFE_plastic-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/496245/preview/K0036964-Formation_of_PTFE_plastic-SPL.mp430.012013-02-27Yesanimatedanimationatomatomschemicalchemistrycoatingdemonstrationdouble bondeducationeducationalengineeringfluorocarbonhydrophobiclayerlow frictionmodelmodelingmodellingmolecularmoleculemoleculesmonomernon-stickplasticpolymerpolymerisationpolytetrafluoroethyleneprocessptfereactingreactionhttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/496246/view/thrombotic-stroke-pathology2018-11-06T15:35:52Z0.9K003/7249 Thrombotic stroke pathologyK003/7249 Animation of the pathology of a thrombotic stroke, showing death of brain tissue due to a blocked cerebral artery. The point of view zooms in to a healthy brain, showing an artery (red) amongst millions of nerve cells (yellow). The artery opens to show normal blood flow. If the blood has a high level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL, brown dots), white blood cells in the smooth muscle lining of the artery may ingest too much LDL, turning them into "foam cells". These may rupture and form a plaque of fat and dead cells, called atheroma. As the plaque grows it narrows the lumen of the artery, restricting blood flow. This can prompt the growth of a blood clot by the plaque, as platelets (grey) build up and trap blood cells, blocking the artery altogether. The zoom out shows cell death (black) due to a lack of oxygenated blood past the blockage, which in turn can cause the death of a substantial part of the brain. The symptoms of a stroke depend on the part of the brain affected, and can include partial paralysis, speed abnormalities and facial muscle weakness.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/496246/350wm/K0037249-Thrombotic_stroke_pathology-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/496246/preview/K0037249-Thrombotic_stroke_pathology-SPL.mp463.182013-02-27Yesabnormalanimatedanimationarteriolearteryatheromaatherosclerosisbadblockageblockedbloodblood clotbloodstreambraincardiovascularcell deathcentral nervous systemcerebralcerebrovascular accidentcholesterolclottingcnsconditioncvadiseasedisordereducationalflowheadhypoxialdllow density lipoproteinhttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/497056/view/columnar-basalt-rocks-greenland2018-03-28T09:38:32Z0.9K003/4465 Columnar basalt rocks, GreenlandK003/4465 Patterns in columnar basalt rocks formed as a result of the cooling of volcanic lava.

The heart muscle is supplied with oxygen by the coronary arteries (dark) on the surface of the heart. The zoom in to one of these arteries shows the development of a plaque of atheroma within the artery wall. Atheroma is a fatty substance composed of cholesterol, fats and dead white blood cells. Plaques in artery walls lead to a condition known as atherosclerosis. This disorder is strongly associated with a poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle, with high blood levels of low-density lipoprotein (LD, the so-called "bad cholesterol") being particularly dangerous. Atheroma plaques in coronary arteries can impair the blood flow either by blocking the blood vessel, or as here, by a piece of the plaque breaking off, forming an embolus. This can travel in the blood to a narrower artery, which it blocks. The heart muscle requires a constant supply of oxygen, and a blockage can rapidly lead to the death (black) of muscle tissue. This can lead to fibrilliation (rapid, irregular heartbeat) and ultimately to the heart stopping (cardiac arrest). Heart disease is the biggest cause of death in the developed world.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/497096/350wm/K0037250-Heart_attack_pathology-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/497096/preview/K0037250-Heart_attack_pathology-SPL.mp430.012013-02-28Yesanimatedanimationarteryatheromaatherosclerosisatheroscleroticbeatbeatingblockageblockingbloodstreamcardiaccardiac arrestcholesterolclotconditioncoronarydeadlydeathdiseasedisordereducationalembolismembolusfatalfibrillationheartheart attackheartbeatldlmedicalmedicinehttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/497097/view/infrared-spectrum-of-ethanol2018-11-16T10:41:45Z0.9K003/7355 Infrared spectrum of ethanolK003/7355 Animation of the infrared spectrum of ethanol (the alcohol in drinks) and an ethanol molecule, showing how the shape of the molecule produces the pattern of the spectrum. IR spectroscopy produces a characteristic pattern for every molecule, and this has been used in tests for alcohol, for instance in some breathalysers used to determine alcohol consumption by suspected drink drivers. Under infrared light some of the bonds linking the atoms are excited (red), and they absorb specific wavelengths of the IR energy, which makes them stretch more vigorously than usual. The O-H bond absorbs light with a wavenumber of 3391cm-1 (2.95 microns wavelength), the C-H bonds around 2961cm-1 (3.38 microns) and the C-O bond at 1102cm-1 and 1055cm-1 (9.07 and 9.48 microns).https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/497097/350wm/K0037355-Infrared_spectrum_of_ethanol-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/497097/preview/K0037355-Infrared_spectrum_of_ethanol-SPL.mp422.012013-02-28Yesabsorbingabsorptionalcoholalcoholicanalysinganalysisanimatedanimationatomatomsbeambondbondingbondsbreathalyserbreathalyzerc-hc-ocarbonchemicalchemistrycrimedetectingdetectiondiagramdrink drivingdriverdrunkeducationeducationalethanolexcitationhttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/497098/view/ethanol-molecule-in-infrared-light2018-11-06T15:35:56Z0.9K003/7356 Ethanol molecule in infrared lightK003/7356 Animation of an ethanol molecule in a beam of infrared light. Ethanol is the alcohol found in drinks. The way it behaves under infrared (IR) light is characteristic of the molecule, and this behaviour has been used in tests for alcohol in people, such as in the breathalysers used to determine alcohol consumption by suspected drink drivers. Under infrared light, some of the bonds linking the atoms are excited (red), and they absorb specific wavelengths of the IR energy, which makes them stretch more vigorously than usual. Each type of bond absorbs a particular wavelength, and the resulting absorption spectrum can be used to identify the molecule in a sample. See clip K003/7355 for a diagram of the infrared spectrum of ethanol, and the bonds responsible for its appearance.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/497098/350wm/K0037356-Ethanol_molecule_in_infrared_light-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/497098/preview/K0037356-Ethanol_molecule_in_infrared_light-SPL.mp410.012013-02-28Yesabsorbingabsorptionalcoholalcoholicanalysinganalysisanalyzinganimatedanimationatomatomsbeambondbondingbondsbreathalyserbreathalyzerc-hc-ocarbonchemicalchemistrycrimedetectingdetectiondrink drivingdriverdrunkeducationeducationalethanolexcitationhttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/497099/view/ethanol-molecule2018-11-06T15:38:30Z0.9K003/7357 Ethanol moleculeK003/7357 Animation of a molecule of ethanol, the alcohol found in drinks.

Initially the view zooms in to a healthy brain, showing the millions of neurons sending and receiving signals. It then focuses on one synapse, where a nerve cell axon passes a chemical signal to the body of another nerve cell. The axon opens to show its interior, consisting of synaptic vesicles (pink) containing neurotransmitters moving up and down microtubules. Each microtubule is made up of the protein tubulin (blue), which is stabilised by another protein called tau (brown). In Alzheimer's disease the tau breaks down, damaging the microtubule and leading to the formation of disruptive tangles of abnormal tau protein. Outside the nerve cells, a common protein called amyloid precursor protein is broken up into smaller chunks of beta-amyloid (purple). These clump together in senile plaques, which also impair nerve function. The plaques and tangles are characteristic of Alzheimer's disease. The death of nerve cells leads to marked atrophy in the brain, as seen in the comparison at the end.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/498110/350wm/K0037251-Alzheimer_s_disease_pathology-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/498110/preview/K0037251-Alzheimer_s_disease_pathology-SPL.mp490.192013-03-01Yesabnormalageageingagingalzheimer's diseasealzheimersamyloidanatomicalanatomyanimatedanimationappatrophyaxonbeta amyloidbiochemicalbiochemistrybraincellcellscellularcerebralcnscomparingcomparisonconditiondamagedeathdementiadiagramdiseasedisorderhttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/498117/view/dee-estuary-timelapse2018-10-20T00:29:36Z0.9K003/5891 Dee estuary, timelapseK003/5891 Timelapse of sunset over Dee estuary with disused jetty.

The movement in the film is due to the interaction between gravity and buoyancy in the liquid and bubbles in the film. The colours are produced by the interference of light waves reflected from the upper and lower surfaces of the film. As the thickness of the film is of a similar magnitude to the wavelength of visible light (dozens to hundreds of nanometres), the interference patterns appear as bands of colour, related to the thickness of the film. Thicker walls cause interference at longer (redder) wavelengths, so appear bluer and greener. As the film thins through evaporation or other processes, the reflected light cancels out yellow then green then blue light, appearing blue, magenta and golden yellow, before becoming too thin to support itself, and popping.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/498140/350wm/K0037347-Soap_film_colours-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/498140/preview/K0037347-Soap_film_colours-SPL.mp4762013-03-02Yesbackgroundbandbandsbeautifulbeautybubblebubblesbuoyancycalmchangingclipcolorscolourcoloursdemonstrationdizzyeducationeducationaleffectfilmfilmsflowingfluidfluidsfootagegravityhallucinationinterferenceinterferingiridescenceiridescentlighthttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/498250/view/horseshoe-falls-wales2018-03-28T09:38:32Z0.9K003/4592 Horseshoe falls, WalesK003/4592 Timelapse footage of Horseshoe falls (Sqwd y Bedol) on the Nedd Fechan river.

The colour-enhanced view of Mars was taken by the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) as the satellite flew overhead. The image shows the terrain around the rover's landing site within Gale Crater on Mars. Colours were enhanced to bring out subtle differences, showing that the landing region is not as colorful as regions to the south, closer to Mount Sharp, where Curiosity will eventually explore. In reality, the blue colors are more grey. The rover itself is seen as the circular object, with the blast pattern from its descent stage seen as relatively blue colors. The dark dune fields lying between the rover and Mount Sharp can be seen in the lower portion of the picture. Mount Sharp is out of view, below the image frame. This image was acquired six days after Curiosity landed on 6th August 2012.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499405/350wm/K0034139-Fly_over_Mars_to_Curiosity-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499405/preview/K0034139-Fly_over_Mars_to_Curiosity-SPL.mp4302013-03-06Yes2012astronomicalastronomycolouredcuriositydunedunesenhancedexplorationexploringfieldflightflyfrom spacehirisejourneylanding sitemarsmars reconnaissance orbitermount sharpmroorbitorbitingplanetplanetaryresearchroversandsandysciencespacesurfacehttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/499406/view/panorama-of-mars-from-curiosity2018-11-06T15:33:01Z0.9K003/4284 Panorama of Mars from CuriosityK003/4284 Panorama of the Martian surface from the Curiosity rover.

Transpiration is the evaporation of water from a leaf, which helps create a pull that allows the roots to take up more water. Water (red and blue molecules) arrives at a leaf through a xylem vessel (brown tube). This leaf vein is lined by a sheath of close-fitting cells with large vacuoles (spaces). Water is drawn out of the vein by osmosis, passing from cell to cell along an osmotic gradient, before it reaches an air space in the leaf. This borders the lower surface (green) of the leaf, and the water is held behind a pore called a stoma formed of two guard cells (brown). Water evaporates through the open stoma, which helps to draw more water up from the ground. At the same time, carbon dioxide from the atmosphere diffuses in to the leaf, providing the source of the carbon used to make sugars in photosynthesis.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499411/350wm/K0036177-Transpiration_in_a_leaf-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499411/preview/K0036177-Transpiration_in_a_leaf-SPL.mp424.012013-03-06Yesanatomyanimatedanimationbiologicalbiologybotanicalbotanycellcellsdiagramdiffusingdiffusioneducationeducationalevaporationguard cellleafleavesmesophyllmodelmodellingmoleculeopeningosmosisosmoticparenchymaplantplantsporespongystomastomatahttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/499412/view/sodium-potassium-pump-mechanism2018-11-06T15:37:06Z0.9K003/6178 Sodium-potassium pump mechanismK003/6178 Animation showing the mechanism of action of the sodium-potassium pump, an essential membrane protein found in all animal cells. The pump is responsible for maintaining the correct level of ions in the cell. The cell interior is at bottom. Three sodium ions (Na+, yellow) enter the open pump, and a molecule of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) then phosphorylates the pump, losing a phosphate group (P) to it, and becoming ADP (adenosine diphosphate). The phosphorylation changes the structure of the pump, causing it to open outwards and expel the sodium ions. Two potassium ions (K+, green) from the outside then bind to the pump, which dephosphorylates it, converting back to its starting form and moving the potassium ions into the cell. The pump is then ready for three more sodium ions.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499412/350wm/K0036178-Sodium-potassium_pump_mechanism-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499412/preview/K0036178-Sodium-potassium_pump_mechanism-SPL.mp459.482013-03-06Yesactive transportadpanimalatpatpasebilayerbiochemicalbiochemistrybiologicalbiologycarriercellcellscellularchangechannelconformationconformationalcutawaydiagrameducationeducationalelectrochemicalenzymegradienthumanintracellularionionsmechanismmembranena+ k+-atpasehttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/499413/view/rain-high-speed2018-03-28T09:38:32Z0.9K003/6185 Rain, high-speedK003/6185 High-speed footage of raindrops in water.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499413/350wm/K0036185-Rain,_high-speed-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499413/preview/K0036185-Rain,_high-speed-SPL.mp475.222013-03-06Yesbackgroundconceptconceptualdropsfallingheavyhigh speedhigh-speedmeteorologicalmeteorologyprecipitationrainraindropraindropsrainingrainyslow motionslowed downsplashsplashingturbulencewaterweatherwethttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/499414/view/sgwd-gwladrus-waterfall2018-03-28T09:38:32Z0.9K003/6186 Sgwd Gwladrus waterfallK003/6186 Panning high-speed footage of the Sgwd Gwladrus (Lady Falls) waterfall, formed where the Pyrddin river (Afon Pyrddin) falls more than six metres over a lip of rock.

The cycle converts four hydrogen nuclei (protons, red) into a helium nucleus, with a release of energy. It is a catalytic cycle, named as the nuclear reactions cycle through isotopes of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. Initially, a free proton fuses with a carbon-12 nucleus, forming nitrogen-13 and emitting a gamma ray (yellow wave). This undergoes beta decay, in which a proton is converted to a neutron (yellow) with the emission of a positron (orange) and a neutrino (pink), forming carbon-13. Another proton then fuses, forming nitrogen-14 and a gamma ray, followed by a third proton, forming oxygen-15 and another gamma ray. This undergoes beta decay to nitrogen-15, emitting a positron and neutrino, before the fusion of a fourth proton ejects an alpha particle (helium-4), reforming the carbon-12. The process repeats in an endless cycle, converting hydrogen to helium and emitting energy. The CNO cycle is the dominant energy source for stars more than 1.3 times the Sun's mass. In Sun-sized stars, the proton-proton chain dominates: just 0.8% of the Sun's energy is produced by this cycle.

The movement in the film is due to the interaction between gravity and buoyancy in the liquid and bubbles in the film. The colours are produced by the interference of light waves reflected from the upper and lower surfaces of the film. As the thickness of the film is of a similar magnitude to the wavelength of visible light (dozens to hundreds of nanometres), the interference patterns appear as bands of colour, related to the thickness of the film. Thicker walls cause interference at longer (redder) wavelengths, so appear bluer and greener. As the film thins through evaporation or other processes, the reflected light cancels out yellow then green then blue light, appearing blue, magenta and golden yellow, before becoming too thin to support itself, and popping.https://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499443/350wm/K0037348-Soap_film_colours-SPL.jpghttps://www.sciencephoto.com/image/499443/preview/K0037348-Soap_film_colours-SPL.mp4762013-03-06Yesbackgroundbandbandsbeautifulbeautybubblebubblesbuoyancycalmchangingclipcolorscolourcoloursdemonstrationdizzyeducationeducationaleffectfilmfilmsflowingfluidfluidsfootagegravityhallucinationinterferenceinterferingiridescenceiridescentlighthttps://www.sciencephoto.com/media/499444/view/soap-film-colours2018-11-06T15:35:44Z0.9K003/7349 Soap film coloursK003/7349 Colours in a soap film.
